Good day

I've just created a new flow, trigger, when an email arrives (v3), create file (Sharepoint). It is failing to save with this error - the url '' is invalid. it may refer to a nonexistent file or folder, or refer to a valid file or folder ...

I am saving only to a document library, no folders.

If I disable the new flow, (created on the new interface) and turn on the previous flow (created on previous interface) to do the same thing it saves the file. The difference is old flow - was using encodian extract text from regions and new using AI builder model - extract information from documents, but theses steps come after the create file action.

Can anybody please assist?

Thank you

post some screenshots of what you have that is not working both the runtime error and the editor view, maybe that will help explain and allow someone to help

Thank you for your response 🙂
The two screenshots below are of the new flow created today

These next two screenshots are from a flow created in Nov 2023 before the new interface changes took place and it saves fine - ran the flow with the same document as a test this morning. If it was a problem with the SP document library, surely would've received the same error with this flow as well?

Try switching off the new editor experience and resave the flow that is having the error. You can also try just remapping the site and folder path (and the connection it is using), it's possible while it is showing you a value, it isn't actually being mapped into the underlying source code.

Thank you for your response. Switching back to classic mode worked. However, just a note to anyone else experiencing this, I had to completely recreate the flow starting from classic mode. Merely switching back to classic mode and trying to edit, some dynamic content fields were missing, attachment name and attachment content

Thank you again for your assistance

The new editor has its upsides, but is pretty buggy at the moment. I'm really surprised they pushed it as the default editor with the known bugs
